Blood
Like a scene from The Exorcist, I once spewed a stomach-full of blood all over a charming nurse as I came round after a major dental operation. Tell us your tales of red, red horror.

This was about average for my overly macho father:
My old dad once put a nail completely through his hand with a professional-grade air-powered nailgun, wrapped the wounded hand in a shop towel, drove himself home with one hand, walked into the house, calmly informed my youngest sibling and her (frightened) friend that he'd had a bit of a mishap, took a shower (would have been impolite to go to the hospital a stinky, sawdust-y mess!), and then drove himself to the hospital (again one-handed) to have the nail removed and the wound treated.
Old Dad was a hard one.
